He Divorced Me, Now He's Begging for My Love 052: Loyal To The Core
Priya had been home for eleven minutes.She had taken her heels off at the door, put the kettle on, and was in the middle of unpinning her hair when the knock came.She wasn't expecting anyone.She went to the door and opened it without checking first because this was a building with a secure entrance and a concierge downstairs and nobody got up here without being buzzed in.Jane Smith was standing in the corridor.Priya looked at her.Jane looked back.For a moment neither of them said anything."Hellodear," Jane said pleasantly. "Priya, isn't it?""It is," Priya said,still very suprised as to what this was about."May I come in?"Priya looked at her for a moment. At the coat, the composure. She knew exactly how this conversation was going to go.She stepped aside.Jane came in.She looked around the flat with the casual assessment of someone - not rudely, just thoro

Marcus had never liked hospitals and disliked them even more tonight. The doctor had insisted on stitching the cut above his eyebrow. His mother had insisted on X-rays and his sister had cried the entire time. Marcus ignored all of them. As soon as they finished everything, he walked out. One eye swollen, his lip was split. His ribs hurting every time he breathed. He drove himself anyway. Half an

Priya gave him the address in the car. It wasn't really hard for her to find it with a few calls.Aidan got out of the car without turning off the engine.Priya called after him. "Sir, be careful—"He didn't hear her.He went up the steps two at a time. He found the buzzer marked WEBB and pressed it and didn't let go.A woman's voice came through, surprised. "Hello?"He didn't answer. He pressed it again.Marcus walked toward the front door, loosening the tie around his neck.It had been a long day, I mean he went to see Jane and they had a time and he went to run some errands. "It's probably the post office, I'll just-"He pulled the door open.His smile immediately disappeared.Aidan. Standing there.Expressionless.Marcus barely had enough time to register the look on his face.When Aidan's fist crashed into his jaw.The force sent Marcus stumbling backward into the living room table. A decorative vase toppled over and shattered across the floor.His ears rang.Blood immediately fi

Aidan drove all the way to AS Tech with one question in his head.What could possibly be so urgent that Priya was so hesitant about it?Priya never spoke that way unless it mattered, so he was hoping for something good.The drive back from the business meeting was oddly unsatisfying. He should be more excited that the partnership had finally been signed after more than a year of negotiations, instead, his mind kept drifting back to her.Evelyn's face, her tears, the pain in her voice when she told him to leave.“Stay away from my son.” He could still feel the angst in it.He gripped the steering wheel harder.The car rolled into the underground parking garage of AS Tech.As soon as he stepped out, his phone rang.It was Jane.He stared at the screen for a few seconds before answering."Baby..." Jane's voice came through quickly. "W-where are you right now?"Aidan rolled his eyes. "I just got back from a meeting.""Oh." There was a pause."So... where are you now?"Aidan frowned slight

The hotel conference suite had already been converted into a temporary LUXE workspace.Dress bags hung neatly along one wall, sketches covered another, fabric swatches lay across every available table and boxes kept arriving every few minutes.Rosa already had a clipboard in hand and Zara looked stressed.Evelyn stood in the middle of it all with a notebook tucked beneath one arm."The hem is still too long," she told one of the seamstresses."But it measured correctly." the lady answered."I know." Evelyn stepped closer, crouching slightly to study the gown. "It measures correctly standing still. It won't when she walks."The model took three steps and the dress brushed the floor.The seamstress sighed. "...I'll fix it, ma'am.""Thank you." Before Evelyn could take another step, Zara appeared beside her holding a tablet."Milan confirmed.""Good.""But Paris hasn't.""They will.""And Rosa wants your opinion on Look 2." Evelyn asked Rosa."I'll be there in two minutes.""And—" A loud

Priya checked the time again as the taxi pulled up outside the hotel. She was ten minutes early at least.She preferred being early.The investor Aidan had asked her to meet was staying there for only one afternoon before flying to Switzerland, and according to Aidan, the meeting could determine whether AS Tech secured another expansion project before the end of the year.She paid the driver, adjusted the strap of her handbag and walked into the hotel.The lobby buzzed quietly.Priya walked toward the reception. "Good afternoon," she said politely."I'm here to meet Mr. Corbin Adams"The receptionist typed for a few seconds."I'm sorry, ma'am. Mr. Adams checked out about twenty minutes ago."Priya blinked."Oh." But she was early.."He left a message."The receptionist handed her a small card.Emergency meeting. Extremely sorry. Will contact Mr. Smith directly.Priya sighed softly.Well...That was two hours of preparation for nothing.She thanked the receptionist before turning away.
